Desktop OS marketshare numbers are WAY off
editIn February 2023, Windows holds 57.37% of the desktop OS market in the US, macOS holds 29.62% and Chrome OS holds 7.47% so the numbers in this article are either outdated or completely made up 2600:1702:5342:9600:0:0:0:10 (talk) 18:39, 19 July 2023 (UTC)
- The article is about global marketshare, I have checked and the numbers are correct. 12think (talk) 09:41, 14 November 2023 (UTC)
Windows under 50% of desktop in some countries, even down to cs. 20% – because of Android?!
editSee: this map. E.g. Guinea, Congo (DRC); and here because of "Chrome for Android" seemingly explaining "Unknown" desktop. comp.arch (talk) 00:49, 3 February 2024 (UTC)
What does Worldwide device shipments have to do with Usage share of operating systems?
editThe two are only tangentially related. Worldwide device shipments should have its own article, and the section in this article needs to be shortened and have a link to that. Kai Johnstone (talk) 14:01, 8 February 2024 (UTC)
Why doesn’t the meta horizon OS and watch OS feature in this article ?
editOperating systems should span across devices used by human beings for their personal or professional computing needs.
So the lack of sections for XR headset and smartwatch OS sections is glaring 98.247.232.251 (talk) 04:51, 16 August 2024 (UTC)
